Jay Haywood, who runs the weekly Monday session in All Saints’ Square, this week welcomed members of Rotherham Round Table, who presented a cheque for £500 for vital supplies.

This week’s fare — prepared by a team of volunteers — included jacket potatoes, pasta salad, chilli and baguettes, as well as sausage rolls and pasties donated by Greggs, with more than 50 people being fed.
